"Please enjoy the music while your party is reached"

I never enjoy the music I am subjected to. Never. Invariably it is some inane, hackneyed, lame, garbage. I typically put it on speakerphone so that others can have a cheap laugh at the person's expense.

If I can ever make the decision on some on-hold music, it will be
a constant loop of Chuck Mangione's "feel so good". That song begs
to be used on hold. [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-W7gvk9lmBQ"]YouTube - Feels So Good/Chuck Mangione[/ame]

I actually dont mind being on hold when calling godaddy.com (my website's host).
They play Squirrel Nut Zippers on their system.

Do they actually say "please enjoy the music while your party is reached"? That's even more annoying than the music.

Affirmative. It's like Pavlov's dog & the bell. I get agitated because I know some Daddy Yankee, or Clint Black, or some equally insipid dance music is going to do the aural equivalent of punch me in the face.

I get that it's got a nice beat and you can shake it at the club to the beats. I swear, it's straight up a sonic hostage situation.

Yeah, I've never heard on-hold music announce itself. Just a sudden burst of lo-fi musak interspersed with either ads for the company you're calling, or "your call is important to us, please stay on the line, chump."

Ringback Tones is a new personalization service, which replaces the standard ringtone for your friends and family to enjoy. Choose a song for your callers to hear before you pick up a call. Use the language of music to express yourself before you answer a call and say a word.

The language of music typically chosen, would be the degenerate mutterings and gibbering of Morlocks, but that's just me.

Can I use the normal ringing tone during work hours, but use a fun Ringback Tone after-hours?

Yes, the Time Of Day functionality can be used to specify a unique Ringback Tone to be played during a specific time period. The default Ringback Tone will be played during all other times. You can also choose a fun Ringback Tone as your default Ringback Tone.
